Return filing process for taxpayers simplified by GST

The GST Network mentioned that it has introduced a functionality which will simplify the return filing process for the taxpayers. In a statement, GST network mentioned that the new functionality has been introduced for the ease of taxpayers under which the questions will be posed as soon as the taxpayer enters the Returns dashboard, and only the relevant tiles will be displayed to them based on the answers to the questions posed. 

This facility has been started with GSTR-3B returns which is the initial sales return. For a ‘Nil’ GSTR 3B, the one click filing has been introduced as no tile will be shown to such taxpayers and a help section has been provided on each page for the convenience of the payers.

Up until now, the taxpayers were shown all the tiles with payments when they enter the Returns dashboard but now they will be shown only those tiles which are relevant to them. They will be asked questions and based on their response; they will be shown only the relevant tiles. This new facility will help save time for the taxpayers. GSTN provides the IT backbone for the new indirect tax regime.
